Richly granular narratives and innovative more-than-human methodologies undergird the work's innovative articulation of 'aquabiopolitics' as a conceptual lens into the relationship of waste, pollution, and marine life, enriching and informing fields including environmental anthropology, political ecology, STS, and the environmental humanities.” —Sophie Chao, Lecturer in Anthropology, University of Sydney “With great sensitivity and scholarship, Rodineliussen shows us how, more than a sink or a bath, our waters have long been treated as a toilet in which we dump our shit, from industrial effluents, to plastics and old car batteries. This (sea) bottom-up ethnography of renegade citizen-scientists offers a compelling vision of a new water politics that moves us from bare life to thriving ecosystems.” —Patrick O’Hare, Senior Researcher, Department of Social Anthropology, University of St Andrews This book introduces the concept of Aquabiopolitics to understand how humans govern life in water to enrich human life on land. The study focuses on the Baltic Sea and Lake Mälaren, using Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, as the connection point. The author explores how human practices over time have had devastating effects on marine life and continue to have so today. The book engages with the marine world through underwater ethnography, providing a perspective on water from below the surface. It joins marine scientists and trash scuba divers who are jointly invested in tracking human maltreatment of water and finding solutions for treating water differently. One of the key parts is to analyze how, and if, this relationship can be created: via social media, images, installations, or other means.
